Onomichi Kokusai Hotel

Good location, on the opposite side (from the train station) of the more comercial area with the shopping streets. There is a Lawson convenience store next to the hotel, and supermarkets, regular restaurants and fast food restaurants nearby. The shuttle bus service, which requires reservation, was really nice, as it can be used to go from the hotel to the station or from the hotel to the onsen "Poppo no yu" and back. Getting the tickets for the onsen at the hotel reception was cheaper than at the onsen entrance. The room was clean and the amenities (sleeping robes, towels, toothbrushes etc.) were as one would expect from this type of hotel.

It is an upper-class business hotel. More the classic kind, but with splendid service of an very old school type. We felt like special guests, although we just stayed one night, and booked a standard room. Very nice experience.

Hotel was about a 1.5km walk from the train station and just 700m from the Shiminami Kaido Cycling Hire depot. Rooms are quite spacious compared to other rooms we stayed in Japan

The staff was well drilled and professional. The shuttle bus from and to the station was super convenient. The room was large compared to regular Japanese hotels and equipped to handle all our needs.

Friendly staff, looked after our bags for a few nights while we were away cycling. was very kind of them :) clean and comfortable. A little hidden ramen store right next to the nearby pachinko place was excellent. can leave bikes in parking downstairs.
